Baby boy names too out there?

I'm almost due with my first boy and finding names very hard! DH and I like a few, but I'm wondering if they are just too out there? Our top 3:

Magnus
Franklin
Crosby

Also on our list are some "safer" names which would probably go better with our quite common traditional English girls name for our dd:

Leo
Jesse
Dylan
Finn

Stuck! It was so easy the first time round!

Dylan
Franklin
Leo
In that order.
Not Crosby.

Love your more out-there names. Crosby is more Crosby, Stills, Nash & Young than Bill Cosby to me.

I love Magnus and Leo. We know about 5 Finns under a year old though so that's very fashionable.

Jesse and Leo are both at the top of our list. Love them both as does OH.
I really like Finn.
My best friend just called her baby boy Dylan. Quite nice.
Magnus and Crosby are not to my taste at all.
I like Franklin and Frankie but not Frank.

Love Magnus.
Like Finn

None of them seem out there at all to me. Crosby I really don't like and also it reminded me of Cosby as in Bill.

All of them are fine except Crosby that's a surname!
